Don’t give Trump voters a pass
Boston Globe ^ | February 27, 2017 | Michael A. Cohen

Posted on 02/28/2017 6:12:26 AM PST by artichokegrower

ON NOV. 8, 2016, 62 million Americans cast a presidential ballot for a demagogue who regularly uses racist, xenophobic, dishonest, and misogynistic rhetoric — Donald Trump.

Hernandez, who is of Mexican descent and is undocumented, lives in the town of West Frankfort in Franklin County, Ill., which overwhelmingly backed Trump. Local residents there are aghast that Hernandez is caught up in the president’s immigration crackdown.


Ignoring the tedious rhetoric of the rest of this opinion piece the example does not pass the smell test (for fake news). Currently the only reason Mr. Hernandez would come to the attention of ICE is that he committed some fairly serious crime or skipped previous immigration court dates. The author seems to have left out some details that us racist, xenophobic, dishonest, and misogynistic Trump supporters would like to know.

The Boston Glob published discredited phony photos of a British “soldier” urinating on an “Iraqi prisoner” that was staged in merry ol’ England.

They have no cred.

OK, so Boston Globe hates 62 million people and wants others to get on the hate wagon with them.

...is of Mexican descent? Or is Mexican?

Hernandez, a Mexican national, occupies a home in West Frankfort in Franklin County, IL where people who can legally vote chose the president. Local residents are aghast that illegals such as Hernandez continue to be paid for editorial articles like this one. It is still illegal to employ any foreign national who does not have a permanent resident card that allows employment.

My response: do not give Hillary voters a pass. Do not give those who voted for a corrupt, globalist, elitist who was willing to sell our nation out for her personal wealth a pass.

Starts off with a lie. Worthless piece of crap.

C’mon Michael Cohen tell us how you really feel about the 62 million of us who voted for Trump. Typical Boston liberal idiot. Cohen is voicing the desperation of the left. They have no agenda to speak of and all they can do is attack Trump, and eventually to his voters. No shock this drivel was published.

I'm actually okay that the local feel empathy for this criminal. After all, he probably is a nice guy. Nevertheless, their outpouring of emotions doesn't change the Rule of Law, and if he's not here legally, well - buh-bye.

And even more voted for a candidate that was a serial liar, a felon, a crook, a national security menace, and an enabler of a rapist. You’ve got a second article to write, Cohen.

A few said awful things to me, but most don’t fall easily into the caricature that has developed around them. Most didn’t support all of Trump’s policies (to the extent they knew what those policies were) and some had legitimate grievances.


Typical leftist condescending snot.

But we should honest about what they’ve done. They can and should be held to account for not being bothered enough by Trump’s intolerance and cruelty.

He is talking about Trump voters here.

Advertisers should pay the price for using the Boston Globe.

Michael Cohen, another SHJ who has no problem criticizing Trump but no doubt voted for the racist pandering, sexist pandering, homosexual pandering, traitorous, pathological lying, rape and harassment enabler, self dealing, pay for playing, bitch that didn’t have any reason to be nominated other than being married to an equally disgusting man.

So tell us about how bad we are, Cohen, you despicable POS

Hernandez has 2 DUIs. In Illinois, the 3rd will be a felony and will probably mean penitentiary time.
